Spi. / The Spy.

Verse

Spigelia,-What needs thy aid
Are pains neuralgic, that invade
The face and eyes and head and heart,
When noise and jar, fresh pangs impart;
And forehead pains that bring a frown,
And vertigo on looking down,
And headache, that involves the eye,
With pressure like a bandage tie.
Scalp sore and tender-eyeball sore,
Form pain intense-on turning more-
But prosopalgia plays the tune,
The whole day long and worse at noon.
A plug-like pressure clogs thy ears,
Thy hearing whilom disappears.
A toothache thine intensified,
By air, or water cold, applied.
Sharp stitches in the heart and chest,
With respiration much oppressed.
Loud beating heart, wherewith denied,
Reclining on the right hand side.
